The full moon in December is known as the cold moon because it is the first of the winter season.It is also known as the Long Night Moon because it falls shortly after the winter solstice, which is characterized by shorter daylight times

Others refer to the full moon in December as the wolf moon, as wolves howl in the middle of the night during the cold season

The moon takes approximately 27 days to complete one orbit around the earth. During this time the moon begins with eight different phases

At the beginning of its cycle, the moon is on the same side of the earth as the sun, with its dark side facing our planet.As a result, it is almost invisible to us. Then gradually a small piece of the crescent moon appears in our sky while it becomes a full moon at the peak of its cycle, after which it begins to become invisible again, before beginning again 29.5 days after the previous new moon

Each of these phases is characterized by changes in the visibility, brightness and size of the moon

A full moon occurs when the earth is sandwiched between the sun and moon at exactly opposite ends and the side of the moon facing the earth is fully illuminated by the radiant sunlight
